Shopping
Cannon Beach is a very touristy town and may be too crowded and over-whelming for individuals looking for a relaxing beach weekend but if you don't mind the crowds, there are tons of shopping and dining choices. Cannon Beach is about a half an hour drive up the coast and there are amazing viewpoints along the way. A very dog friendly town, prepare to see lots of pooches!
